This versatile salad is one of my favorites to make. Take a bunch of fresh ingredients, toss them together and you’ve got lunch.
The ingredients to chop are: 1 avocado, tomatoes (I had the sweet grape variety on hand) and a bit of onion. I like kick, so I added about 1/4 of a medium sized onion…diced small. Oh and cilantro…if you like it. I feel like people either love or hate cilantro. I love it (hello, chipotle cilantro lime rice!) so I add about 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro.
Crack open a can of black beans (drain and rinse them) and add some frozen corn…about a cup. The dressing for the salad is 2 squeezed limes and about 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and you’re good to go!
I like to eat this for lunch or for dinner, I’ll add a warm tortilla. I made quesadillas for the kids tonight, so I added a scoop of this salad inside the cheese and they loved it…said it tasted like chipotle!
